Hi!

My goal is to automate blinds based on combination daylight/sun measurements and temperature inside.
But want to avoid that blinds is going down/up often if measurements is changed rapidly within the tresholds, e.g. wind and partly clouded.
So i think maybe disable the automation that lowering the blinds for maybe 30 minutes after they have been raised and vice versa.
Here is my two automations (not tried yet), any idea to add functionality to achieve my goal?

  alias: Blinds down

  trigger:
  - above: '8000'
    entity_id: sensor.lightlevel_40
    platform: numeric_state
  condition:
  - above: '24'
    condition: numeric_state
    entity_id: sensor.temperature_37
  - after: 07:00
    before: '21:00'
    condition: time
  action:
  - entity_id: scene.blinds_down
    service: scene.turn_on
